BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

For workplaces where the use of computers is widespread, the wiring of the network and other lines is very important and necessary. Since each computer must be connected to or powered on with other computers through the network, when the amount of equipments is large, the situation of line staggering becomes more complicated. If lines are exposed to the outside, it will be unsightly and will affect the movement of people. The network floor can be erected to keep space for threading and patching at the bottom, and the number of floors to be laid can be flexibly determined according to the size of the indoor space. Therefore, it has become the mainstream of modern informationalized office.

In the above-mentioned raised floor design, because the pipelines are hidden under the raised floor, there is no shunt design; that is, all pipelines such as power lines, telephone lines, network cables and other power or signal cables are mixed together; especially in under-floor air conditioning (UFAD) popular countries (such as the United States and Canada) additional larger pipelines, such as condensers, hot water pipes, water pipes of gas pipes are placed under the raised floor, making the pipelines under the raised floor more chaotic. For various pipelines or the construction staff for pipelines, the installation, maintenance and even removal thereof have caused great trouble and inconvenience in operation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTIONS OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Please refer to FIGS. 1-4 , which show an embodiment of a raised floor system for suspension type pipelines of the present invention. The system mainly comprises girders 2 and floor units 3 laid between pluralities of foot stands 1 after the foot stands 1 are erected at intervals on the floor, such that the floor units 3 are separated from the floor by a distance so as to form a large-area raised floor.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , a top portion 11 of the foot stand 1 for the floor units 3 to be placed thereon is combined with a cover 4. The top portion 11 of the foot stand 1 and the cover 4 are correspondingly provided with lock holes 111, 41, such that the cover 4 is capable of being fixedly locked and jointed to the top portion 11 of the foot stand 1, and the girders 2 are also capable of being directly locked and jointed to the cover 4 (as shown in FIG. 3 ). Of four sides of the cover 4 each is vertically provided with a folded plate 42. A hole 421 is formed on each folded plate 42. Two ends of a suspension device 5 are capable of being respectively hooked on the holes 421 of the folded plates 42 of two spaced foot stands 1, so that the suspension device 5 is placed under the floor units 3 for pipelines to be placed thereon or fixed thereto.

In fact, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the suspension device 5 comprises two hook plates 51 and an inverted U-shaped cantilever beam 52. The hook plate 51 is Z-shaped. An upper top face 511 and a lower top face 512 are formed on two ends of the hook plate 51, wherein the upper top face 511 is used for passing through the hole 421 of the folded plate 42, the lower top face 512 is used for supporting one end of the cantilever beam 52. And two ends of the cantilever beam 52 and the lower top face 512 of the hook plate 51 are correspondingly provided with lock holes 513, 521, such that after the lower top face 512 of the hook plate 51 is fixedly locked and jointed to the cantilever beam 52, the suspension device 5 is capable of being positioned between two foot stands 1 (as shown in FIG. 3 ).

Furthermore, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6 , the cantilever beam 52 is further provided with a plurality of types of fixing holes 53, 54 with different diameters for the pipelines or line bottom nets 6 (as shown in FIG. 4 ) to be fixed thereto and hooked thereon. The cantilever beam 52 is further provided with at least one separation column 55 for separating the cantilever beam 52.

Therefore, during construction, after several foot stands 1 for the raised floor are laid on the ground, the cover 4 is capable of being fixedly locked and jointed to the top portion 11 of the foot stand 1, and the construction staff can choose the hook plates 51 with different lengths according to the needs of use, after the upper top face 511 of the hook plate 51 is passed through the hole 421 of the folded plate 42, and the lower top face 512 of the hook plate 51 and the cantilever beam 52 are fixedly locked and jointed, such that the cantilever beam 52 is suspended between two hook plates 51, the construction staff can arrange the pipelines. Finally, after the girders 2 are locked and jointed to the cover 4 and the floor units 3 are laid on the girders 2, a large-area raised floor system can be formed (as shown in FIG. 4 ).

In this way, through the design of the present invention, it has the advantages as follows:

-   -   1. Through the design of the folded plates around the cover on         the top portion of the foot stand and the suspension device for         various kinds of pipelines or line bottom nets, such as network         cables, electrical wires, signal wires or water pipes,         air-conditioning ducts, to be placed thereon or fixed thereto,         the present invention is not only low in cost and simple in         structure, but it is also more convenient for users to check and         repair in order to reduce working hours and improve efficiency         when replacing or maintaining pipelines in the future.     -   2. Through the design of the suspension device of the present         invention, various kinds of pipelines are capable being directly         placed on the inverted U-shaped cantilever beam or hooked on         fixing holes with different diameters on the cantilever beam,         and, at the same time, the hook plates with different lengths         can be chosen according to actual needs to produce an effect         similar to multi-player channels (as shown in FIG. 3 ). At the         same time, it can also be matched with the design of the         separation column on the cantilever beam to achieve the purpose         of diverting large and small pipelines or being convenient         construction.     -   3. Although the design of suspension of the present invention is         different from the structure of all current raised floors, the         components such as the foot stands, the girders and the floor         units still retain the same structures as of those available on         the market today. Hence, for the existing traditional raised         floor industry or the places where the traditional raised floor         is already in use, it can be easily upgraded to the structure of         the present invention without the need to completely replace or         destroy the existing structure. Not only can the effect of the         present invention be achieved quickly, but also the cost and         inventory can be greatly reduced, and the waste problem can be         reduced, and it is also environmentally friendly.
